"We could not be happier with the job that Andy and Jesse did with the window replacements. The quality of the product and the professional manner of installation was suburb, the project was done in very timely fashion, there was minimal disruption, and the clean-up was complete. We are very happy we selected Comfort Windows, and we would certainly recommend then to others"
"Everything about our relationship with Graves Bros. during the window project has been excellent: from the initial estimate, details about start times, the crew that installed the windows, and the office personnel with whom I spoke about billing questions. The crew of Bob, Joshua and Kyle were in our house for two days and were professional, efficient, friendly, courteous and really knew what they were doing. There were a couple of unexpected problems which they didn't ignore but rather came up with excellent solutions. We are 100% pleased with Graves Bros. Home Improvement and recommend them without hesitation. We called them for the window project because they had been equally professional when replacing our roof 2 years ago."
"Install went great. There were some fit-up issues with a couple of the windows, but 2nd crew was able to correct those issues. Windows look great and Pace did a great job!"
"I highly recommend this CRPRADO LLC! They repaired damaged drywall and fixed the trim around my windows, and the results exceeded my expectations. Their workmanship was excellent, with great attention to detail, and everything looks seamless and professionally finished. They were reliable, professional, and completed the job at a very reasonable price. If you’re looking for quality work and fair pricing, I wouldn’t hesitate to hire them again."
"Excellent service, quality materials, professional, fast, clean. The best choice of 3 options. Very satisfied with the entire experience of full tear off of cedar plus two layers of asphalt shingles and replacement of 3 skylight windows."
"They did a great job! They were friendly, knowledgeable, and kept me updated the entire time. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a re a replacement roof or a repair."

Window Door Contractors questions, answered by experts
Installing a basement window generally takes a few hours, assuming there are no structural issues you need to resolve first. If you’re a novice DIYer, the project could take longer; on the flip side, a licensed and trained window contractor may be able to replace multiple basement windows in the time it takes a homeowner to replace one.
Many windows carry warranties from the manufacturer or installer that may cover the cost of repairs for a fixed amount of time. When installing or replacing windows, ask about any applicable warranties, what kinds of damage and repair they may cover, and what the procedure is for making a warranty claim.
Most standard windows can accommodate solar screens, but specialty shapes or non-standard frames may require custom solutions. It’s important to consult with a professional to ensure compatibility and proper fit for unique window designs. Arched, bay, and fabricated windows often need fabricated screens, which can increase costs and lead time.
Among the various entry points into your residence, it's crucial to recognize that your basement windows are arguably the most susceptible. Basements usually have windows facing the side and back yards, often concealed from driveway floodlights, porch lighting, and doorbell cameras. Their vulnerability underscores the importance of reinforcing basement window security to safeguard your home from break-ins.
Solar screens use a thick mesh of polyester to block out the UV waves and solar heat. While they are more expensive at about $7.50 per square foot, they can protect your porch or hardwood floors from sun damage and keep the room or porch on the other side of the patio cool.
